I ordered a vibrator from AES. And they say to replace the buffer cap when putting the vibrator in. Now, which is cap is that?

It is across a couple of the vibrator socket pins and has a high voltage rating, usually 1600 volts. It has always been standard practice to replace with the vibrator.

This is the capacitor connected across the contacts to keep them from arcing. Usually around .05UFD/600V.
